Denton Hall Facilities

Denton Hall Stables are set in 540 acres of tranquil County Durham countryside which is ideal for training thoroughbred racehorses.

There are three gallops available to train the horses; a 5 furlong all weather woodchip, a 6 furlong all weather sand gallop and a 7 furlong grass gallop. A pre-parade ring has been built to allow the horses to warm up prior to doing their gallops work. There is a viewing tower at the top of the gallops allowing owners to watch their horses working.

The yard is capable of stabling around 70 horses. It has two modern horse walkers, newly built washing bays, a set of starting stalls to train young horses prior to their racecourse debuts together with turn out paddocks and a turn out pen.

Denton Hall stables has its own fleet of horse boxes to ensure horses are safely transported to and from the racecourse.

Prospective owners are always welcome to view the facilities and watch the horses exercise on the gallops. Please contact Michael Dods to arrange your visit.
